Neglect is the cause of mai.y
so-called defects In pianos. To
keep moths from getting into
the felt, place a camphor bag
Inside the case. Keep the piano
away from any heating unit and
lrom the direct rays of sun.
Keep furniture polish or oils,
which discolor ivory, away from
the keys. Clean them only with
soap on a very sllghtlv dapip
cloth. All fine woods need oc
casional sudsings to remove ac
cumulated layers of wax and
polish that after a time give a
grayish look. Clean carefully
with warm suds allowing sur
face to dry well before re-ap
plying polish. *
